Office 2010 offers an excellent image editing feature, which would help us do a lot of stuffs with images. In the previous post, we saw how to remove the background from a picture and create a Portable Network Graphics (PNG) image. In this short tip, we will look at how to add Artistic Effects to an Image.
Step 1: Insert an image into any of the office Suite products. In this example, I will use the Word 2010.
Step 2: Double-click on the image; this will give you a separate picture Editing Menu Bar (as shown below)
Step 3: Click on the Artistic Effects button. This will give you all the shades and effects available for the image; When you hover the mouse over each of the effect, you can have a preview of the effect as applied on the image.
Step 4: Just select the effect and click on it. The desired effect would’ve applied on the image.
